This edition is in part a new work, and partly a revised and expanded version of the Pitt Press edition by J.M. MacGregor (Cambridge University Press, 1915) This description may be from another edition of this product.
My older boys (8-yrs-old) enjoyed the pictures. The text was very, very simple and not overly informative, but the pictures of the newly hatched owl, then again at 3 days, or a week or 3 weeks were really neat. My 5-yr-old loved this. He spent about 30 minutes looking through it, and asked me to read it twice. For some reason the picture of the young owl turning its head cracked him up and he spent a lot of time laughing. The 2-yr-old also enjoyed looking through this. He looked at it almost as long as his brother. I think this is a valuable book for the pictures, but not so much for the information. For that reason I'd recommend you get it from the library. It seems that there is a new edition of this book out with a different cover and stickers. I haven't seen it as my library only had the older version. *taken from my review at goodreads
